Get notified when work finishes

Use the app inbox to catch up, browser notifications to hear when work finishes, or a connected messaging channel to get the answer where you asked.

Ping this device when a turn finishes

The bell icon in the chat header opts this browser on this device into a notification when your Talent finishes what it is doing.

1. Open your Talent in the browser.
2. Click the bell in the chat header.
3. Accept your browser's permission prompt when it appears.
4. The icon changes to show notifications are on.

Ask for something slow, switch to another tab, and you get a system notification the moment it is done.

Catch up from Home or the bell

Open Notifications on Home or choose the bell in the app header. The same inbox separates Needs you, Working now, and Updates when there are items in those groups.

• Needs you includes decisions and requests, such as an action waiting for approval or a Room mention.
• Working now shows work in progress.
• Updates shows news you can catch up on. Choose Clear updates to clear dismissible items in this group. Open decisions and ongoing work stay visible.

If a Room mention has Mark as read, use it on either surface. It clears from Home and the bell. Select the mention to return to the conversation. If you cleared a mention by mistake, choose Undo when it appears.

For a record of what ran, use Activity.

Let the work come to you in a messaging channel

If you would rather not watch the browser at all, ask for the work in the channel you already live in. Your Talent answers where you asked, so a Routine set up from team chat reports back there, and quick approvals can be answered with a tap without opening the console.

A worked example

If a teammate mentions you in the launch Room, choose Mark as read on Home once you have seen it. Open the bell to check that the mention is cleared there too. An approval still waiting on you stays under Needs you.

An agency producer asks their Talent for a competitive teardown that will take several minutes, clicks the chat header bell, accepts the browser prompt, and goes back to email. Six minutes later the notification arrives and the Artifact is waiting. The next day they set the same job up as a weekly Routine and point it at team chat, so Monday's teardown arrives without anyone watching the app.

What to check

• The bell is not in the chat header. Your browser does not support web push. Use a connected messaging channel instead.
• The bell shows as blocked. You previously denied notifications for this site. Only your browser settings can undo that; re-allow notifications for the site, then click the bell again.
• You allowed notifications but nothing arrives. Check that your operating system is not in a focus or do-not-disturb mode, and confirm you enabled it on the device you are actually watching.
• You are getting nothing anywhere. Confirm the work actually ran. Open Settings, Activity and look at Failed.
• The header bell never empties. Some items need a decision from you and stay until you make it. Expired approvals stay visible on purpose, because a stalled run is something you need to know about.
